On December 28, 2021, the FDA updated the emergency use authorization (EUA) for COVID-19 convalescent plasma. The update limits the authorization to the use of COVID-19 convalescent plasma with high titers of anti -SARS-CoV-2 antibodies for the treatment of COVID-19 in patients with immunosuppressive disease or who are receiving immunosuppressive treatment. Additionally, to help assure the manufacture of high titer COVID-19 convalescent plasma, the revisions to the EUA define acceptable tests and increase qualifying result cutoffs to be used for manufacturing COVID-19 convalescent plasma with high titers of anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies.
